They have each come out very well, Moose.

Thanks!

But I was quite surprised to see that the Sticky Monkey shots combined so well, 
considering how much movement there was (apparently) in the left-hand pair of 
flowers.

1/1000 sec. shutter speed pretty much took care of movement in each individual shot. I think what you have interpreted as movement of the left pair in Shot One is really the busy/edgy bokeh of so many complex, contemporary lenses.

The problem was geometry. I could get both sets of flowers in the same plane of focus, but not pointing the right way, shot from the side. Or, as I did, pointing the way I wanted the composition, but in focal planes too far apart for conventional DoF.
